Hi,
yesterday i have been outside with the drone and took some shots. But after I changed the battery and the drone was again in the air, I wasn't able to get a clear immage out of it. Always when I tryed to focus with the button on the remote or even tapping on the sceen the immage turned out blurry. I wasn't able to get a clear shot. Anyone here who has expirienced the same issue? And if yes, how could i solve this problem. This happened twice in 3 days now.
The drone is running the newest software.

Thanks for the help!
Cheers
Max

From what I understand, the mavic pro requires a bit of light to be able to focus properly.  So if you were flying during sunset, it may have issue focusing.

Reset the camera in the app and set sharpness to +1.

All cameras need light and better again something with 'edges' meaning its easy to focus on edge of a building or landscape, even the horizon as focusing is usually helped with contrasted edges to make it easier to focus.

Agree with A CW, assuming you are shooting in good light and the lens is clean and clear (no condensation or smudges), try resetting the camera.

Max, just to verify, did you use AF or MF? Please try to reset the camera settings and fly a good light condition, use the MF mode, tap the target you are going to focus. If the issue persists, please provide me with a screen recording of this case for a better confirmation. Thank you.

ok perfect, I'll try it the next time I fly. Then I'll let you know if it's getting better with this option and the camera reset.

No not really, I couldn't fix it but it's not appearing so often anymore. Since then I had this issue only once...
I try to set all camera settings to manual and since then I have the feeling that it's getting better, or rather since then I hadn't had the problem.
Befor that I tried to reset the camera but nothing, the problem was still there
